About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

“RETREEEEEAT!” Surrendering the Arsenal of the West! We need Latin!
I am always dismayed when I see that a new bishop dumbs-down his coat-of-arms, or stemma as it is called in Italian, with a modern language motto. Of course I and some jocular priest friends suggested some less-often-considered mottos here. … Continue reading
I just don’t get it. Do they hate what they claim to want to be?
Over at Coo-ees In The Cloister: Look at this photo. What does it say to you? What questions come to mind as you look at the way these people are dressed, at the signs they are holding? Is there any … Continue reading

QUAERITUR: Can a miscarriage be a sin?
From a reader: I was wondering if it was possible for a natural miscarriage to be a sin. The doctors couldn’t tell me why it happened, but statistically miscarriages are more likely when the mother is obese, as I am/was. … Continue reading
